About the Role
Join SeedLegals, the leading provider of automated legal solutions for startups in the UK, France, and Ireland. As part of the Customer Experience (CX) R&D Tax Credits team, you will work directly with some of the UK’s most exciting startups, helping founders understand R&D tax credit rules and reviewing their claims built through SeedLegals. This role goes beyond traditional R&D tax positions by combining technical review with customer interaction, allowing you to engage with innovative businesses across software, engineering, science, and other industries.

You will assess whether work meets R&D criteria, review both technical and financial elements of claims, and support founders through the complex tax process via email and video calls. Collaboration with the wider R&D and tax specialist teams on complex cases will help you continually build your expertise as legislation and HMRC guidance evolve. Your role is key to ensuring founders understand and feel confident about their claims, not just completing submissions.

If you enjoy the technical side of R&D but want variety, ownership, and direct interaction with innovative businesses, this role offers a unique opportunity to grow within a fast-paced, mission-driven company backed by top-tier investors.

Experience
- R&D Tax Credits
- Accountancy or tax
- Science, engineering or technology industries
- Software development or other technical disciplines
- Xero, QuickBooks or other bookkeeping platforms
- Reviewing technical or financial reports
- Working directly with customers or clients

About you
You are eager to use your knowledge to review, understand, and challenge R&D claims while helping customers navigate the process themselves. Previous experience writing R&D reports is welcome but not essential, as this role focuses more on customer interaction and claim review rather than report writing.

Qualifications
There are no specific qualification requirements stated, but a background in relevant technical, financial, or customer-facing roles will be advantageous. A willingness to learn and adapt as the R&D landscape evolves is essential.
